I recently had a problem with my 2008 Mazda 3 where the compressor clutch would not engage so there was no air conditioning at all in the car. Most garages and dealers don't troubleshoot down to the AC clutch coil and would just replace the entire compressor which requires an expensive compressor, system flush, evaporator valve (sometimes), vacuum and refrigerant charge. A repair like that can easily run over $1000 in this car. By replacing the coil only, my total cost was $52.
